I don't know why nobody is looking at
A series Continentals. They're light,
170 lbs. with Bendix mags. with
Slicks 6 lbs lighter. They can be easily
accessorized with a set up like 4 cylinder
Lycomings. They are readily available, and
parts are not that expensive. They are 171
cu. inches, with A80 pistons get 80 hp at
2700 RPMs and have an excellent reputation
for reliability. Old technology yes, but you 
can't argue with tried and true. E Magair is
working on a 4 cylinder Continental electronic
ignition that is even lighter than Slicks.
A lot less pucker factor here
